Orange Beach Alabama Penthouse Metallic Wetbar

Coast Design Kitchen & Bath

The Klein condo is a penthouse unit overlooking the beautiful back bay of Orange Beach, AL. The original kitchen was put in by the developer and lacked a wow factor as well as the organization and functionality that the Klein's desired to fit their cooking and entertaining needs. The right side of the kitchen is a wall of floor to ceiling windows that bring in the beautiful scenery of the bay. It was important to the client to create a kitchen that would enhance and compliment the water view rather than distract from it. We chose the Bristol door, a wide stile shaker, because of it's clean and simple lines. Wellborn's Willow paint served as the perfect compliment to the cool blue tones from the bay view that poured into the kitchen. We made sure to use every inch of space for functional storage; from a lazy susan in the tight left corner, to a tall pull-out cabinet left of the fridge, to custom fitting a cabinet front all the way to the angled wall on the right side of the kitchen. Mrs. Klein wanted a large smooth surface for baking, so we created a double-sided island that gave her a 50" deep smooth countertop with waterfall ends. The Klein's also wanted to incorporate a large wet bar near the kitchen to use for entertaining and display. We used the same finishes and moldings, but added some glass doors and glass shelves to reflect the water views. The bar includes two spice rack pull-outs that are used for liquor bottle storage. This renovation transformed the Klein's drab, builder level kitchen into a custom, highly functional kitchen & bar that harmonizes with the beautiful bay views that encompass it.

Home Bar Design Ideas with Ceramic Floors and White Benchtop

A home bar can provide a spot of indulgence for one, or be a central hub you gather round when entertaining. Whether you’re thinking of planning a wine bar, outdoor bar, or just making room for a bar cart, browse these images for inspiration, and ask yourself the following questions.

Where should you position your home bar?

The most popular location for a home bar is in or near the kitchen or dining room. If you prefer entertaining outdoors, however, an outdoor bar can be a dream addition to any Aussie backyard – and imagine the luxury of swimming up to your very own pool bar! If you're building from scratch, a landscape architect can help you work out the ideal design for your space.

What type of home bar is best suited to your needs?

Home bars come in all shapes and sizes, and with an array of practicalities. Utilise an awkward corner with a cabinet bar; maximise floor space with a trunk bar, which unfolds to create a bar counter; or conveniently turn any space in your house into a bar room with a mobile bar such as a fun bar cart. If you prefer a more grandiose option, or all the amenities of a real bar, you can’t go past a built-in home bar.

What home bar functionalities do you want to include?

Decide how you will use the bar and whether you will need sinks, storage and refrigeration. Including a sink in your home bar design is a practical addition if you choose a location far from your kitchen. If you’re a wine connoisseur, you may want to include additional wine storage, whereas a mini bar fridge within the kitchen may need no extra storage at all. Home bars that will be used infrequently – perhaps an outdoor bar in the cooler months – may not need refrigeration and could suffice with large ice buckets.

What bar furniture will you need?

Seating is essential to any home bar and will impact the style of your home bar design. Bar stools, for example, come in an array of materials and styles, from traditional wooden bar stools, to resort- and industrial-style stools. Storage is another important element, so look for a liquor cabinet and wine racks. Next, if you are creating a freestanding station, you will need a bar table, which are taller and shallower than regular dining tables. Check that your stools and table height work together before you finalise any home bar designs.

How can you personalise your bar design?

Bar tools and accessories are an easy and interchangeable way to personalise your bar design. You may want to create a wine bar, tavern-style bar or retro bar, so look for wine glasses and tumblers, for instance, that will help carry this style. Coasters, bar mats or signage will help you to further achieve your desired look.
